nice set up

why do you have these together?

They look like Pacus.

Metynnis lippincottianus - spotted silver dollars.

Ya, your right !

o sry they look like piranhas. doug (i guess) thinks the same thing

guys, what you talking about, this is a young red belly piranha,look careful at the jaws

chris i am sorry if this affends you but... are you crazy!! putting pirhanas in with cichlids. have you not seen youyube vidoes? and i aggree about the spotted silver dollars but if they really are piranhas they'll rip your fish apart.

not if u feed them well. there realy passive also im jest trying to growthem out in my big tank so i can sell them. and yes they are peranah. look at the other pictures

not true, they will eat your fishes even if well fed..starting by the fins...believe me

i agree with chuck, I had them, they are going to nip fins of any of their tankmates, even when they well fed.
also, I am really surprise this poor little cichlid, still alive there for longer then one night, with piranhas school like this.
remind me these nasty videos at youtube, where these sick as*holes feed piranha with adult cichlids, arrowana, etc. I hope you not one of these.

chris, think also, keeping them well fed means also polluting your tank..the other fishes will suffer from it anyway....cheers alex

i tought you were a better fish keeper than that , chris

ok first of all they are young all my cichlids are much bigger than them, except my little pike. also the cichlids are way more agressive than them and actuly pick on the paranahs. as soon as i start seeing niped fins beleve me ill take them out.. like i said im trying to grow them out for a little in my big tank. i understand ur consurns tho. thnx

even that little geo picks on them

also i do alot of water changes any ways
